About Tracking Buddy APK
Table Of Contents
Description
Tracking Buddy (for asset tracking) allows the tracking of any Android device when granted permission by the user of the device being tracked.The usage requires three simple steps.
1. Tap the 'Grant' button, enter a friendly name of the user who will be tracking your device, the app will then generate a secret code.
2. Give this secret code to the user who will be tracking your Android device.
3. The user who will be tracking your device then taps the 'Accept' button and enters the code along with a friendly name of the party they are tracking.
With Tracking Buddy You Can:
1. Keep a log of your day-to-day journeys. Each record can be given a friendly journey name.
2. View a list of devices that you are tracking (tracking multiple devices is a premium service).
3. View a list of devices that are tracking your device.
4. Track one device for free (tracking multiple devices is a premium service).
5. Be tracked by as many devices as you wish (also free).
6. From the 'Tracked By List' you can toggle revoke/grant tracking permissions tapping 'Revoke Tracking Permission' prevents the selected user from tracking your device and tapping 'Grant Tracking Permissions' re-allows selected user to track your device. You can also remove a user from the list all together.
7. When tracking multiple devices you can disable the tracking of certain devices. This is an open end for those who request a private app to be developed.
8. In the settings you can also set the distance between latitude/longitude points that you would view on a map (when recording your day-to-day journeys).
If you wish to backup your day-to-day journeys you can find the log files on your device here: \Android\data\com.WarwickWestonWright.TrackerMate\files
Note: Though this is an asset tracking app you can use it to track any Android device for any purpose.
To request the premium feature of tracking multiple devices or if you wish to have a private app developed for your organization you can contact the developer at: warwickwestonwright@gmail.com
If you just need a simple app to keep a log of your day-to-day journeys and you don't require asset tracking try the 'Route Tracker' app by the same developer. This app has a feature that allows the viewing of journey summaries (ie distance, time and average speed).
Known Issue 1:
When reinstalling the app for an existing user, the app will ask you to log in; emailing you a password. At present you can't put the app in the background while logging in. The user must leave the app open and retrieve the password from another device.
Note: On Some Android 10 Devices the route tracking will not work in the background to remedy this: Hold down the app icon and select 'App Info'. Select 'App permissions' then location. Select 'Allow all the time'.
Known Issues. After enabling background location permissions user will have to start the tracking process again.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
